Once upon a time there was a sword-questioner

Chapter 269 Question of the Alchemist
Tang Ge went to Daming Palace, and under the leadership of the military general last night, he walked into Yongchang Palace without being noticed by anyone.

There are high steps under the phoenix chair. Nian Zhiling is standing under the lowest step. The light is slightly dim, but it sets off her noble temperament.

Tang Ge was not limited to etiquette, and now he is in the position of head teacher in Kunlun Mountain, so naturally he doesn't need to salute Nian Zhiling.

The two looked at each other calmly, the Yongchang Palace seemed to be extraordinarily cold in summer.

After a while, Nian Zhiling bowed slightly to Tang Ge and said, "I've seen Headmaster Tang."

Tang Ge said: "It doesn't have to be like this, what's the matter?"

Nian Zhiling folded her hands in front of her waist, and said calmly: "My sister told me before the retreat that she must make good friends with Kunlun Mountain. Now that a major event happened on the sacred mountain that shocked the world, I naturally want to congratulate Headmaster Tang."

Tang Ge said: "It is normal for the position of head teacher to change, the princess has a heart."

Nian Zhiling smiled slightly, looked at Tang Ge with an inexplicable expression and said, "I wonder if the headmaster can tell you the current situation in Kunlun Mountain?"

Tang Ge said: "Chi Jing came back from Kunlun Mountain, the princess must have asked him, right?"

Nian Zhiling said: "Everyone is blocked by the source formation, how can Hall Master Chi see it?"

Tang Ge thought for a while and said, "Princess, don't worry about it. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

A ray of sky light scattered on the ground of Yongchang Hall, dividing the darkness and illuminating Tang Ge's back. He turned around and was about to walk towards the sky light.

Nian Zhiling raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "Headmaster Tang doesn't want to know about Duantian Pavilion?"

Tang Ge stopped and turned around to look at her. The sky was behind him, his eyes were covered, and he looked extremely cold. He said, "I don't like charades, and I don't like your so-called temptation of people's hearts. It's better to be frank."

Nian Zhiling was startled. Tang Ge's cold tone almost made her body tremble. She was silent for a while and said, "Why do you say that I am also Nian Li's aunt? Can't Headmaster Tang be more polite?"

Tang Ge said: "He is him, and you are you."

Nian Zhiling only felt a blockage in her heart, and stared at Tang Ge, angry and annoyed, but she couldn't show it.

After a long time, she said: "The God General Liuyun is not bound, and now that my sister is retreating, he is even more uncontrolled, and the Duantian Pavilion is now cut off from the outside world, it is very likely that he has something to do with it, and what he did Everything should be because of you."

Tang Ge frowned and said, "He wants to use Ji Huan to threaten me?"

Nian Zhiling nodded slightly.

Tang Ge asked, "Why?"

Nian Zhiling said: "God Liuyun's heart is as deep as the sea, even my sister can't figure out his thoughts, how can I know, but he colluded with aliens in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, he must be very thoughtful deep."

Tang Ge took a deep look at Nian Zhiling, thinking that you really know a lot.

Looking at his expression, a smug smile appeared on the corner of Nian Zhiling's lips, and said, "Does the headmaster think that I know too much? I still want to ask, does Xue Ru's death have anything to do with you?"

Tang Ge looked at her calmly and remained silent.

Nian Zhiling continued: "In the past, not long after you first entered Chaotian City, you went to the Shangshu Mansion to hurt Xue Ru, and later on, in order to know his secret, you took the time to put on a good show. I am afraid that you are the only one who has contact with him."

Tang Ge said: "So?"

Nian Zhiling's eyes narrowed slightly, and she said, "So I suspect that you killed him. Don't forget, he is always from the Great Zhou. Even if you are the headmaster of Kunlun Mountain, you can't kill the people of the Great Zhou at will."

The corner of Tang Ge's mouth raised slightly, and he said, "You said it too, it's just a suspicion."

Nian Zhiling said, "Are you admitting it?"

Tang Ge said, "Admit what?"

Nian Zhiling frowned, thinking why didn't she see that you were such a rascal before.

Tang Ge said again: "I want all the dossier records about Kuiliu."

Nian Zhiling clenched her hands tightly. If it wasn't for her status, and because she wasn't Tang Ge's opponent, she would definitely beat him up now.

Why does this guy's personality seem to be different from before.

However, Tang Ge still got the record of all the information about Kuiliu in Daming Palace.

Until he left Yongchang Palace and Daming Palace, Nian Zhiling did not get any useful information from him.

After Tang Ge left, Nian Zhiling calmed down a little, and then called the military general in again.

"General Zhou, what do you think?"

Nian Zhiling once again became the unpredictable little princess of the Great Zhou Empire with a city in her chest.

That military general was named Zhou Bo, who was under the command of Divine General Su. He was originally stationed in the north of the border, but now he was recalled to assist Nian Zhiling.

Zhou Bo said: "This man's heart is as deep as the sea, and he can be called the best in the world."

Nian Zhiling was slightly surprised: "It's rare to hear you comment on a person like that."

But Zhou Bo shook his head and said: "The last general is talking about the best in the world, and he is the only one."

Nian Zhiling nodded with a complex expression, the best in the world, isn't it stronger than the Empress Sister, You Dongjie and others, and even the Mountain Lord?

"Has there been any other movement from the military recently?" Nian Zhiling asked.

Zhou Bo said: "A few days ago, God General Liuyun went to Qiyun City in Qidi. According to rumors, God General Honglian, Commander Jiang and Princess Ruyin also appeared there."

Nian Zhiling's expression changed slightly, and she said, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Bo glanced at her and said, "I don't know, but it should be related to Prince Qi's residence."

Nian Zhiling's eyes drooped slightly, wondering why the second sister was there?Could it be that he was looking for his brother?
Zhou Bo said again: "His Royal Highness, do we need to take measures?"

Nian Zhiling said, "Not for now."

"There is one more thing to report at the end."

Zhou Bo hesitated for a moment and then said: "A few days ago, Baihu General Zhuang Wuchen asked for leave, but he should not be in Chaotian City at this time."

Nian Zhiling's eyes were slightly cold, and she said, "Where did he go?"

Zhou Bo said, "It's most likely Xilu."

Nian Zhiling frowned and asked, "He went to Kunlun Mountain?"

Zhou Bo said: "I don't know, there is a big shot behind him, so we can't control his whereabouts at the moment."

Nian Zhiling was silent, and the Yongchang Hall was quiet and depressing, before she said after a long time: "General Zhou, remember to do a good job in the security work of Chaotian City. Now that the two generals Qinglong and Baihu are not here, and the positions of Xuanwu and Suzaku are vacant, everything needs to be done." It’s up to you.”

Zhou Bo respectfully cupped his fists and said, "Princess, don't worry."

Nian Zhiling added: "Always pay attention to the movement of the Great Zhou Mansion, Duantian Pavilion lost news, maybe Ji Yifeng will know something."

Zhou Bo raised his head, his gaze under the armor became a little hesitant, and said, "What about Xue Ru's death?"

Nian Zhiling thought for a while and said, "You don't need to ask, let Chi Jing continue to investigate."

……

……

Tang Ge went back to Wenjian Pavilion, and an alchemist wearing a strange costume appeared on Zhengyang Street. There was a bloody mark between his eyebrows, and ghost faces, skulls and other patterns were all over his white clothes.

He glanced at the direction of Wen Jiange, turned around and walked into the chessboard house.

On the lush green lawn, there is a faint mist, and Gu Qiu is in it, holding the chess pieces casually and chicly, quite like a fairy.

When he saw Shangguan Yin appearing, he immediately put all the pieces on the chessboard back into the urn, because he was too hasty, the black and white pieces were mixed together.

"Why are you still here?"

Gu Qiu raised his head and looked at Shangguan Yin with deep eyes.

Shangguan Yin sat down opposite him, looked into his eyes and said, "Why don't you dare play chess with me?"

Gu Qiu said: "I don't want to."

Shangguan Yin said: "The more you behave like this, the more I doubt your identity."

Gu Qiu smiled slightly and said, "As you wish."

Shangguan Yin's eyes gradually deepened, he stared at Gu Qiu for a long time, and said quietly: "Who are you, the chess ghost old man?"

Gu Qiu was stunned, the coldness in his eyes disappeared in an instant, and he smiled lightly: "The chess ghost old man is a master of chess, I am just an ordinary person, how can I have anything to do with him."

Shangguan Yinxu squinted his eyes and said: "The old chess ghost only took one apprentice in his life, and that apprentice is also a young genius, whether it is chess or practice, he is a gift from heaven, but after the old chess ghost passed away, he disappeared. , some people say that he came to Chaotian City."

Gu Qiu lowered his eyes and said, "So?"

Shangguan Yin said, "Are you him?"

Gu Qiu suddenly raised his head, stared at Shangguan Yin with cold eyes and said, "He's dead."

Shangguan Yin's pupils dilated slightly, and said, "How did you die?"

Gu Qiu was silent for a long time before saying: "It was the Lord of Kunlun Mountain who killed him."
